Hiding and unhiding folders

You can choose to hide and password protect entire folders from view in the Picasa Library. This doesn't affect the ability to view the photos on your hard drive. Below you'll find instructions on how to hide and unhide folders in Picasa:

Hide folders

In the Folder List, select the folder that you'd like to hide.

Click the Folder menu.

Select Hide.

All folders you hide will only be available in the Hidden Folders collection, located at the bottom of your Folder List when using the 'Flat folder view'. If you haven't created a password for the 'Hidden Folders' collection, you will be prompted to do so.
